Leftist-liberal-militant groups specialise in romanticising and politicising the poor

April 25, 2021 Ramon Ortoll No Comments

It’s a certainty that Inquirer columnist Randy David will write a column about the community pantry and so he does. He touches ever so slightly and only in passing on the incident that marred Angel Locsin’s (a.k.a. Red Angel’s) “community pantry”. Over the years, Filipinos have learned to fall in line and wait for their…

Angel Locsin #CommunityPantry fiasco highlights the indolence of the Filipino poor

April 24, 2021 Ramon Ortoll No Comments

He wishes for anarchy. ABS-CBN starlet Angel Locsin’s (a.k.a. Red Angel’s) community pantry fiasco yesterday shows the indolence of the Filipino poor. Aasa sa bigay. Opposition “thought leader” Cocoy Dayao’s dream is for Pinoys to go out in the streets and demand that Duterte step down before May 2022. This is why community pantries are…

Leni Robredo is hindering efforts to ERADICATE the Philippines’ jeepney CANCER

June 26, 2020June 26, 2020 benign0 No Comments

Virtue signalling has long been the bane of any effort to implement initiatives that help the Philippines progress and prosper. Specially true nowadays is how that and its evil twin, emotional blackmail, conspire to slow or, worse, reverse the country’s march to progress. Nowhere is the battle between wokedom’s lame emotionalism and the sort of…

Virtue signaller @Deeeeeeeeeeysi blames Duterte for troubles of man she boasted about helping

February 18, 2020 ilda 1 Comment

If you don’t know what virtue signalling means, the below thread is a classic example. Pinapakita na isa syang mabait at maawain. The lady who tweeted this now has her account locked so the rest of the thread can’t be read. But it basically narrates how she went out of her way to help the…

Time to invest in the future and on the SCIENTISTS who can make that future happen

January 17, 2020 benign0 No Comments

Ironic that Yellowtards, whose members are an assortment of religious nuts, shrill emotional blackmailers, and artsy social climbing types are now decrying those who “crucify” scientists who have long been consistent in applying systematic thinking on the back of facts. The fact is, science and technology will not thrive in a society addicted to poverty…

Poverty is a CHOICE

November 3, 2019 benign0 2 Comments

News flash: governments don’t care if you live or die. It’s not the government’s job to fix your life for you. Don’t have an education? Read books instead of watching retarded teleseryes. Browse Wikipedia instead of Facebook. Nobody wants to employ you? Take a good hard look at yourself. Perhaps you’re unreliable, tardy, entitled, or…

Regine Velasquez video proves that rich people think poor people stink!

October 13, 2019October 13, 2019 benign0 No Comments

It’s one thing having a collection of expensive bags exhibited on a YouTube channel, but some people believe Filipino singer a.k.a. “Asia’s Songbird” Regine Velasquez went a bit too far when she likened an unpleasant smell coming from one of her recent acquisitions to a slum community known as the Payatas. In the video, Velasquez…

Are you communist because you’re poor, or are you poor because you’re communist?

August 17, 2019 zaxx No Comments

Communism is so closely intertwined with poverty because by definition it is a social system that rewards you based on your needs (not success). Notice how almost always the words communism and poverty/poor will always pop up in the same paragraph. The question these activists should reflect on is this: are you communist because you’re…

We should SUPPORT Mayor Isko Moreno’s removal of Manila’s illegal street vendors

July 6, 2019 ilda 1 Comment

Some people are incapable of looking at the bigger picture. A simple act of enforcing the law can benefit the majority in Philippine society. As usual, “pro-poor” bleeding hearts like Inquirer columnist Gideon Lasco are up in arms over new Manila Mayor Isko Moreno’s drive to rid his city’s streets of illegal occupants… To the…

Poverty is NOT a thing of beauty

December 17, 2018 benign0 No Comments

Everything poverty touches becomes ugly. That’s a no-brainer. It’s the reason why squatters are an eyesore, the homeless stink, and malnutrition ravages one’s looks. For society to be pure in beauty, poverty must be eradicated. Thus there is no merit in putting the poor on a pedestal. It may be virtuous to give to the…
